Chapter 1868 MacArthur Captured
Three Type [-] bombers were dragged from the hangar onto the flight deck of the "Fengxiang" aircraft carrier.Then thirty "Yamato Soul" special forces armed to the teeth and carrying umbrella bags entered the cabins of the three fighters in three groups.These three Type [-] warplanes have obvious traces of modification, and they should be prepared for the "Yamato Soul" to perform special operations missions.

When the three Type [-] bombers left the flight deck and soared into the air, MacArthur and his family were riding towards Ilagan in several military jeeps under the cover of hundreds of American soldiers in military cards.The oath to live and die with Manila has become a fart. Although Roosevelt and Marshall's orders helped cover up the face, in MacArthur's view, this is still an indelible shame.The old American man was sitting in the co-pilot seat, with a cigar in his hand, his face was gloomy, his eyes were squinted, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Chief of Staff Sutherland was in charge of the retreat. He sat behind MacArthur, looked at the slightly gloomy face of the commander, and comforted him: "Sir, the Chinese have a saying that victory and defeat are commonplace in military affairs. It's just a retreat, don't take it to heart."

According to the plan formulated by Marshall, MacArthur will be evacuated directly to Australia by ship, while Sutherland will stay and preside over the follow-up evacuation work.The Americans deliberately avoided the enemy's edge and wanted to withdraw all the surviving American and Philippine troops to Australia to wait for an opportunity to counterattack. As a heavyweight, MacArthur would be the first to withdraw.

MacArthur threw the cigar out of the window, turned his head to look at Sutherland and asked, "Guo Kui, what did the Xue Bingjun say?"

"They refused to retreat."

"Arrogant Chinese, without air force and navy, with [-] ground troops alone, can they stop the Japanese attack?"

"General, I just received a telegram. Just last night, the cadet army ambushed a Japanese army in the area north of Kapatagan. It is said that they won a big victory and wiped out a regiment of the Japanese army."

"One or two small victories won't affect the battle in the Philippines. You know, without the Air Force and Navy, during the daytime, the cadet army will only be passively beaten-you see, it won't be long before the Chinese will ask us for help ! After I arrive in Australia, the first thing I need to do is to form a large-scale air force! Humph, at that time, the Chinese will ask us to provide supplies or provide air support..."

In the war of this era, air supremacy is indeed very important.And because the Philippines is far away from China, the student army must face the problem of supply difficulties, so MacArthur's harsh words are not without purpose.

Even though Sutherland disagreed with his point of view, she also felt that the cadet army would not be able to last long without sea and air support, so she acquiesced to the old man's point of view by not saying anything.

However, things developed beyond their expectations.

Half an hour later, Sutherland was the first to react as the engine sound of a fighter plane sounded behind the convoy. He asked the driver to slow down, opened the car door and looked at the sky behind him, and saw a plane with the sun clearly painted on it. The marked fighter plane was approaching quickly, and his face became ugly.

"Where did the fighter come from?" MacArthur asked.

"Japanese!"

Don't panic, let the cars widen the distance," MacArthur said calmly.

There were not only three Type [-] bombers involved in the search for MacArthur. In order to ensure that MacArthur was captured, Soma Masamune dispatched a total of nearly twenty fighters.These fighter planes did not patronize the frontline positions of the Americans, but condescended to cast a net and search towards the east. Then, the convoy that MacArthur was in stood out from many targets and became the focus of the Japanese.

The first to spot the U.S. military convoy was a Zero Fighter, which circled over the convoy and immediately sent out a signal. Soon, the three Type [-] bombers rushed over from other directions.Another half an hour passed, and after the three warplanes flew with the convoy in a square shape for a few minutes, they came to a distance and began to parachute [-] "Yamato souls".

Thirty umbrella flowers were opened one after another in the left and right front of the convoy. No matter how stupid the Americans were, they knew what this meant. Sutherland became tense, and immediately ordered the escorting American soldiers to get off the car and get them ready to fight. follow up.

I don't know when MacArthur had another cigar in his hand.The old American forced himself to be calm, and said to Sutherland, "The Japanese want to capture me alive? Then send more people, just this few people? Huh, it seems like a parting gift for me!"

The battle started quickly, and what made the old American's eyes widen instantly was that those parting gifts that fell from the sky were so sharp that they were in a mess. The two sides had just met the fire, and more than ten people had already fallen, while the Japanese soldiers on the opposite side clearly Just standing there, but no one fell to the ground after being shot, his expression suddenly became bright.

The Japanese "Yamato Soul" was very vulnerable when facing the Spike and the Unity Brigade, but facing these American soldiers one by one, it was like a big bad wolf facing a little white rabbit.Less than 3 minutes after receiving the fire, the wheels of MacArthur's car were blown up. Sutherland realized that something was wrong, and immediately asked MacArthur to get out of the car, and at the same time called the remaining officers of the headquarters to ask them to provide immediate support. "Hold on, the main force has already set off!" He encouraged his subordinates like this.

A Zero Fighter suddenly swooped down and fired at the place where the American soldiers gathered from a height of less than 300 meters. one slice.

After 10 minutes, two-thirds of the more than two hundred American soldiers fell down. Although the rest were still holding on to the cover of vehicles, nine out of ten were so suppressed that they could not lift their heads. MacArthur and Sutherland's face suddenly became extremely ugly.

"Yamato Soul" was led by a major named Ichiro Onodera. After his own side firmly controlled the situation, this devil shouted in English to ask the Americans to stop resisting, saying that they would treat prisoners preferentially according to the "Geneva Treaty", shouting Seeing that there was no effect, he changed his strategy: "General MacArthur, I know you are inside. You have also seen the current situation, and we have firmly gained the upper hand. Please let your subordinates stop unnecessary resistance, don't you Do you just not care about the life and death of your subordinates?"

The soldiers around him fell to the ground one by one, and seven out of ten of them were shot in the head. The old soldier MacArthur knew exactly what this meant-no wonder the Japanese were so confident, it turned out that they dispatched such an elite force.Facing such an opponent, and the other party firmly holds the air supremacy, let alone they only have more than two hundred people, even doubling them would be useless.The old man and Sutherland looked at each other and got affirmative information from each other's eyes. He stood up and raised his hands and said, "Stop shooting, we surrender!"
